Core Planning Reasoning
The Inspector recommended the removal of Condition No. 2, concluding that the proposed single-storey extension and first-floor window would not negatively impact the visual or residential amenities of the area.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed single-storey extension on the southern elevation does not significantly breach the established building line and integrates effectively with the character of the existing dwelling.
- The relocation of the entrance door to the southern elevation does not result in significant negative impacts on the visual coherence or character of the dwelling or the streetscape.
- The first-floor window on the northern elevation maintains an oblique relationship with the neighboring property at No. 2 St. Eithne Road, ensuring no significant overlooking occurs.
